After leaving the place, Sam and the rest once again started hunting till night.
In two days, they have done seven beasts.
They went back to the tower at night to rest.
For the next two days, they went on a hunt again. Their difficulty increased as the beasts are far from these two traps and they are difficult to lure that far without disturbing the Level-5 beasts.
They were only able to deal with four beasts in two days. They are not exactly ready to involve the Level-5 beasts in the game.
According to Sam's calculations, the swamp needs another beast to increase its level to be good enough to deal with a Level 5 beast and the banyan expanse needs another one.
But these two proved to be challenging for him. The beasts are too far away from him and they have to slowly lure them.
That took another two days. One day per beast.
Now, it is the tenth day and on that day two lights flashed signifying two inheritances. Both of the inheritances appeared side by side.
When they arrived at the spot they saw two stone pillars. Both of them are lightning type inheritances.
There are a total of eight spots maximum.
But Sam didn't enter any of them. From what Hawk and Philip described, the candidate must be of the same element to have any use after entering the inheritance, it would be a pure waste of time.
And the candidates from the thunder-god temple couldn't be happier.
Out of six, four of them are lightning element users including Arthur. The remaining two, one of them is a water element user and another one is a Warrior.
Sam's group just returned without even bothering to enter it.
They started hunting again and this time, the plan is a little too big.
Because they are going after Level-5 beasts. There are thirteen solo beasts in his territory and after that, the real challenge starts. Six habitats.
Sam and his group went to lure the beast. Their first target of Level-5. It is called Blood horned Leopard.
A leopard-like beast having two horns in blood-red color.
The horns are one of the deadliest weapons that a beast could have at that level.
If a person gets stabbed by this horn, the material of the horn will pollute the blood-stream and as if the whole blood cells are infected with the virus, the platelets will stop functioning, so the victim will keep on bleeding without stopping.
One can only be healed after cleaning the whole blood. It is a type of poison to be precise. The horn will only dissolve in blood and not in any other solvent.
Luckily Sam is immune to it too. The Hydra blood can take any poison. This is the nearest Level-5 beast to the banyan expanse.
Sam was the only one who is fast enough to bait this beast and for that too, he needs his harbinger.
So, he made the stay in the way so that they can deal some damage to the beast and provoke it enough to not leave him.
In this way, Sam can completely concentrate on escaping.
If not for the fact, he has to refrain from using the energy cells so that the treasures inside the beasts wouldn't be damaged, he wouldn't have to go through so much trouble.
Now, it is time for them to implement the plan.
Sam entered the territory of the leopard and sprayed a huge amount of water on it.
No matter the world, the feline creatures don't like water that much. So, when the leopard was sprayed with the water, it was pissed so pissed that she didn't see that the color of the water is a little bit different than normal.
It directly leaped towards Sam and Sam flew away on the harbinger, after more than five minutes, when the leopard has about left its territory it was considering whether to give up the chase or not and at this moment, another wave of water hit its face.
This time, it didn't notice where it came from, but it was pissed nonetheless and blamed it all on Sam and resumed the chase.
In the same way, after another ten minutes, it started feeling like giving up and at the same time, its body started feeling a bit numb and hard to move, this time when it was about to turn around, a wind blade hit it hard on its tail making it screech in anger.
Sam looked at it and provoked it.
The beast couldn't hold it any longer and followed Sam with a furious expression.
In another five minutes, they reached the vicinity of the Banyan expanse, and just as they were about to enter it, Sam increased his altitude abruptly.
The leopard came to halt with great difficulty as it reached the edge of the expanse. It felt that something is odd, but before it could make sense, it could feel a hot metallic hit on its butt and due to the sudden piercing heat, it leaped into the expanse.
The vines moved abruptly and caught hold of the leopard. It tried wriggling out of the grip and in-process cut the vines.
But at this moment, a golden eagle, a large boar, and red color elephant, and four more beasts all came from behind the trees.
Their eyes are pink in color. They soon started beating and pulverizing the leopard and it soon became an unmoving corpse and then it became a zombie.
Sam is watching the whole scene from the top. At least a part of it.
He could feel a sense of hostility and at the same time a sense of gratitude to him from the whole banyan expanse. The parasite was happy that Sam was able to bring all the food it can have, but it was having a hard time controlling its urges to devour him too.
Sam can also observe this, right now, the parasite is in the phase of expanding. Since it got some new hosts like these beasts, it will give some leeway to the banyan expanse to grow a bit more, but it will take months and that too on the premise that it survives till that day.
Sam and his group, took more than half-a-day to deal with the leopard. It only took around twenty minutes to lure it.
But to scout the area again and again, so that no mishaps will happen and to check that the beast is in a normal condition and all, it took a lot of time.
After all that, Sam sprayed the water on it mixed with poison of paralysis so that there wouldn't be any surprises and executed their plan
After dealing with another beast, they went back to the tower.
By now, the candidates in other territories also started dealing with the beasts. But they didn't dare attack the Level-5 beasts. The beasts here are abnormally strong and their bloodlines are pretty high. Of course, not as high as Yanwu and the rest.
But they are enough to make these people afraid.
For the next three days, Sam and his group dealt with six more beasts, leaving only four of them,
And by this time, the beasts also noticed the peculiarity. They could feel the changes the Sam and his group brought and are now extremely vigilant.
But that is okay, because, the beasts mostly act on instincts rather than their thoughts, and in another three days the four beasts are also done.
Now only six habitats and the traps are left.
Traps can be dealt with he already has more than one way to deal with each trap.
But the habitats are the most troublesome somethings.
The six habitats are Dark mane lions, the Steel Wolf tribe, the jade horned rhinos, the Black tusked elephants, Red-winged Ravens, and Sand badgers.
Out of all these things, the badgers are the smaller tribe but also most troublesome to deal with. Because the badgers are the ones with the least sense of danger and also the least amount of fear.
Just like the honey-badgers of the modern earth, these badgers will fight to the death with its opponent without any fear, reverence, or any other feeling.
These beasts are actually the only contradiction of the unspoken rules of the beasts and that is the weak fear the strong by instinct. But these badgers do have one restriction though and that is cultivation restriction.
They feel fear or rather aversion and reluctance to attack a being who has higher cultivation that itself. That too if the cultivation level is divided by a whole Level, not a sub-stage.
On the night of the fourteenth day, Sam is thinking about how to deal with the habitats and he couldn't help but look at the map he drafted.
In this, all the positions of the beasts are marked and now almost all of them are crossed. Only the six habitats are left.
As he was thinking about various scenarios on how to deal with these beasts, he got an idea after hours of brainstorming, and if this plan succeeds there is not much need for him to attack personally.
